20100199164 | CONTROLLING EDITING OF A PORTION OF A DOCUMENT - To control editing of a document, a representation of the document that contains a property indicating an editing scope of a portion of the document is received by a first editor. The first editor modifies the property to change the editing scope of the portion of the document, such that a second editor is allowed to change the portion of the document according to the changed editing scope rather than the editing scope prior to changing of the property. | 08-05-2010 |
20110029482 | SYNCHRONIZING A CHANGE OF A MODULAR DOCUMENT - A first electronic device stores a modular document composed of plural component documents that are combined to allow presentation of the modular document. A surrogate of the modular document is sent to a second electronic device. A change of the surrogate made at the second electronic device is synchronized with the modular document, or a change of the modular document is synchronized with the surrogate at the second electronic device. | 02-03-2011 |
20110029594 | MERGING INSTANCES OF A MODULAR DOCUMENT - A first instance of a modular document is received, where the modular document is composed of plural parts, and where the modular document contains a merge definition. A second instance of the modular document is received, where the second instance and the first instance of the modular document have been modified with respect to each other. The second instance is merged with the first instance, where any conflict between the second instance and the first instance is resolved according to the merge definition. | 02-03-2011 |
20110029634 | ASSOCIATING VERSION INFORMATION WITH A COMPONENT DOCUMENT OF A MODULAR DOCUMENT - A modular document composed of plural component documents that are combined to allow presentation of the modular document is provided. The modular document contains references to the component documents. Version information is associated with at least one of the references to identify one of plural versions of a corresponding particular one of the component documents. | 02-03-2011 |
20110029851 | SENDING A SUBSET OF COMPONENT DOCUMENTS OF A MODULAR DOCUMENT TO AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - To communicate a modular document from a first electronic device to a second electronic device, the first electronic device determines which one or more component documents of the modular document are already available at the second electronic device. The modular document is composed of plural component documents. The first electronic device sends to the second electronic device a subset of the plural component documents of the modular document, where the subset of the plural component documents is other than the one or more component documents already available at the second electronic device. | 02-03-2011 |
20110314124 | CAPTURING AN APPLICATION STATE - A method for capturing an application state includes recognizing that a user has ended or will end an application session at an exit point. In response to the recognizing, an electronic document for depicting state data indicative of the application session and a link for resuming the application session at the exit point is assembled. The electronic document is communicated to the user, providing the user with a record of the data entered so far and allowing the user to subsequently resume the session at the point it was suspended. | 12-22-2011 |
